Sherpaj --

All computer batteries are assembled using standard cell sizes,
usually a collection of rechargeable "C" cells.  One way to go is to
dis-assemble your current battery and replace the internal NiCads with
new ones.

Best regards,

That is a awesome idea.  I don't have a battery for it now.  if i did
have one, how would i open it, and how would I recharge it?
